Hi All,

We are trying to detect the clients IP address when a request comes in using webservices. We haven't been able to find any methods or properties exposed to give us this.

Apart from sending the ip address from the client, does anyone else know of a way to do this?

Thanks,

It is not currently possible to obtain the IP address of the client from the Provider. There is an NFS open for this fuctionality to be added in a future release of JADE. In the interim you will need to work around this as suggested by having the Consumer send it's IP address to the Provider.

From the Jade help file:

The code fragment in the following example returns the IP address of the current Web session as determined by IIS.

currentSession.getServerVariable('REMOTE_ADDR');
